Plastic pollution is a major environmental issue that exacerbates climate change, especially in developing countries like India. The rapid rise in plastic production, use, and improper disposal has led to severe ecological consequences, such as soil and water contamination, marine pollution, and greenhouse gas emissions. The relationship between plastic pollution and climate change underscores the urgency of innovative solutions aimed at reducing plastic waste and mitigating its impact. This research explores how anti-plastic innovations can contribute to climate change awareness and sustainable development in India. By examining current anti-plastic initiatives, this paper proposes a framework for promoting sustainable alternatives, improving waste management, and enhancing public engagement in climate-conscious behaviors. The study highlights the potential of policy, technology, and community-based innovations to reduce plastic waste and foster sustainable development in India.
